Introduction

Like to learn Mandarin and meet others with a similar interest. I work at a place where broadcasts are done in Mandarin, Cantonese and other asian languages, and want to learn. This group seems open to beginners.

What are your favorite Chinese dishes and foods?

I like it all but am interested in learning the differences between what has been Americanized, along the lines of this article: http://www.flavorandfortune.com/dataaccess/article.php?ID=77

How would you describe your level of Chinese? (Eg it's my native language OR I don't speak it OR I learned some dialect from my family but little Mandarin, OR I can speak a few words, simple conversations, etc.)

A few words.

What kind of events and activities would you be interested in? What would you like to do at our events?

Basic conversation, book/learning material help such as maybe finding texts that are used to teach in China, and also interested in writing /caligraphy.

What could this group provide for you that no other Meetup could?

No answer yet

Where did you grow up? How did you learn Chinese? Tell us your story.

I grew up around DC. Just started learning with some audio (Pimsluer initially), and books/dictionaries, but realize I need to interact with other people to really learn. Even though I work with Chinese people there really isn't time there.
